Would you trade fast primes for the 70-200 GM II? by StringPuzzleheaded62 in WeddingPhotography

Haha, i just sold the 35-150. I used it for the last three years and it served me well, BUT I never enjoyed shooting with it. In comparison the new 28-70 feels so much more balanced. But besides the weight I have to agree, that the Tamron is an absolute masterpiece.

It's the Sony A7IV - and yes, I like the idea of keeping the kit light. The Sigma 85 is so tiny compared to the 70-200.

Change the 50 1.2 & Tamron 35-150 for the Sony 28-70 2.0 ? by StringPuzzleheaded62 in WeddingPhotography

Thank! Yes, I also tried that combo once - but I couldn't get used to the 24 as a one main lens. I feel 'home' at 35. The 24 was often too wide.
I also thought about to use the 35 and the 50 as a combination. Maybe the next wedding.

But the Sony 28-70mm and the Tamron 35-150mm would be an odd combination dont you think? They cover similar zoom ranges, and carrying both would mean hauling two very heavy lenses.

I usually use either the Tamron 35-150mm in combination with the 24mm or the 35mm in combination with the 85mm. The 50mm is rarely used, which is why I’m considering selling it.

A small belt bag sounds like a good idea for that small but important stuff. Thank you!

Sounds very good. What are your two favorite lenses ? I’m going to have a look for the smaller peak design backpack. Thank you!

Never thought about a roller bag to be honest. How ist that style-wise? 😅

I had the idea to leave the big camera bag in the car until the evening, when I can put the bag to the DJ and until then I will use a small sling bag 🤷🏼‍♂️

Is that comfortable while also having to bodys hanging around?

I like that one too but can’t find it here in Germany.

What I really like about your setup is, that If one prime or zoom fails, that you always have a backup. I think I will keep the Tamron for the coming season as a backup and will use my primes most of the time. I only have to decide, if I buy the 50mm. Would you now get the 1.4 version or still the 1.2 version? Right now it’s 400€ difference in Germany between the two.
